Using _T() and L"" in UNICODE Projects? [modified]

[Lost User]

Hello community, have one question about L"" for unicode strings: do i have to use this L"" for strings always, even if is only one caracter length, also, if i have an single character to compare, something like this:

('H' == *lpsz) // lpsz is an LPCTSTR loaded from an CString
//or to use
(L'H' == *lpsz)
// and 
("H" == *lpsz)
//or to use
(L"H" == *lpsz)

to often my application breaks in this line:

// original code, my program breaks here sometimes:
while( (*wcStrToAnalyse != '\0') && (*wcStrToAnalyse != ' ') )
// i want to loop through this string before i find an first space or string end

and my project is in unicode. thanks in advance break; -- modified at 6:55 Tuesday 5th December, 2006

if you're using LPSTR (CHAR*) strings, then don't use any. if you're using LPTSTR (TCHAR*) strings, then use _T(). if you're using LPWSTR (WCHAR*) strings, then use L.
